Did anyone accuse me of losing my spontaneity since the girls have been born?
Well, I pretty much have.
Occasionally, though, I am inspired to do something a little wild and crazy, which is how Annette and I ended up on a road trip to Vegas less than 12 hours after returning from Lisa and Austin’s wedding. [...]

So, my German was able to take her first trip to Catalina Island for the nuptials of Lisa and Austin. For some reason, we thought it would be fun to sit outside on the boat. Idiots.
(Yes, we’re wearing matching sweatshirts. We’re close.)
We spent the morning hanging out at the beach house, where [...]

We’ve had two in two days. Well, OK, she didn’t see the first one and doesn’t know who either of them are anyway…but at least I’m seeing them for her.

Today we were walking on 3rd [...]
